Barbara Bush is an investor in the company to which she funneled a "charitable contribution"

Wow. This is even sleazier than it first appeared. According to Talking Points Memo, the former first lady is actually one of the investors in the very company to which she gave a "charitable contribution."

Josh asks the right questions: So how is it exactly you get away with making a tax subsidized contribution that you stipulate must be used to purchase products from a company in which you are a partial owner?
